Trevor Sensor previews debut album with politically charged single "The Money Gets Bigger"

The Illinois-based 23 year old reocrded the track in Chicago at Steve Albini's Electrical Audio studio. "The Money Gets Bigger" is the first track to be released from Sensor's as-yet-untitled debut album.

"['The Money Gets Bigger' is] an observation of America - the horrors that occur in a society at large, and behind the closed doors of dysfunctional family homes," Sensor explains. "It's a need for something - the yearning to be somebody people admire and adore in a world that seems void of significance. To find meaning in the limelight, and the despair we all feel when we are not the chosen ones to bask in it. In America, this is our brass ring - to be applauded for our supposed efforts and be beloved by strangers."

The new single follows Sensor's Texas Girls and Jesus Christ and Starved Nights of Saturday Stars EPs, plus his one-off "These Dark Days" single for the Our First 100 Days project.

Sensor will play a free show at St. Pancras Church in London on 4 May.
